Robotic underwater vehicle snaps first images seafloor beneath Antarctica Thwaites Glacier
2020/2/20
During the first study of the ocean floor beneath Antarctica’s Thwaites Glacier, scientists took images of the glacier's foundations. Thwaites now accounts for about 4% of global sea level rise, and r...
When the temperature drops below freezing, snow and ice often follow. But that's not always the case in Antarctica, where for the first time, drizzle has been recorded at temperatures well below freez...
Reframing the dangers Antarctica's meltwater ponds pose to ice shelves and sea level
dangers Antarctica meltwater ponds pose ice shelves sea level
2019/11/15
Dangers to ancient Antarctic ice portend a future of rapidly rising seas, but a new study, partially funded by NSF, may relieve one nagging fear. Meltwater ponds fracturing the ice below them may not ...

Scientists set expedition investigate Iceberg Alley Antarctica
2019/11/22
The 5.4 million-square-mile Antarctic Ice Sheet is the greatest mass of fresh water on Earth. If it all were to melt, it would raise global sea levels some 220 feet. Searching for answers to how fast ...
CHANGES IN VELOCITY OF FISHER GLACIER, EAST ANTARCTICA USING PIXEL TRACKING METHOD
Glacier velocity image matching Antarctica COSI-corr
2019/2/28
Glacier movement is a crucial factor for assessing cryospheric climate change. Traditional methods of field surveys for studying glacier movement and velocity are often not possible owing to inaccessi...
SYNOPTIC OBSERVATIONS OF CALVING EVENTS IN ANTARCTICA USING SPACEBORNE IMAGES
Antarctica Calving Optical Images Rifts Icebergs
2019/2/28
Iceberg calving is the detachment of ice from ice shelves or glaciers. Although calving is a natural phenomenon, an abnormal rate of calving can be a threat to ice shelves. Some of the events were so ...
